Dystroglycanopathies are neuromuscular disorders due to abnormal glycosylation of dystroglycan which is a cell-surface glycoprotein that acts as a receptor for extracellular matrix proteins containing laminin-G domains. The reduced ability of abnormally glycosylated α-DG to bind laminin is associated with abnormal neuronal migration and muscular dystrophy. Clinical manifestations are extremely ...
OBJECTIVE The fukutin gene (FKTN) is the causative gene for Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy, characterized by rather homogeneous clinical features of severe muscle wasting and hypotonia from early infancy with mental retardation. In contrast with the severe dystrophic involvement of skeletal muscle, cardiac insufficiency is quite rare. Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy is ...
C ARDIAC muscle is commonly affected in muscular dy~trophies.l-~ X-linked Duchenne's inuscular dystrophy and Becker's muscular dystrophy are caused by mutations in the gene encoding dystrophin,5,6 a membrane cytoskeletal p r ~ t e i n . ~ In skeletal and cardiac muscle, dystrophin is associated with a large oligomeric complex of sarcolemmal g lycopr~te ins .~~~ This dystrophin-glycoprotein comp...
Pulmonary complications including chest infections, atelectasis, pulmonary hypoplasia and ventilatory failure are the leading cause of death in the muscular dystrophies and atrophies. Ventilatory insufficiency is virtually inevitable in Duchenne muscular dystrophy and type 1 spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), but more variable in limb-girdle, congenital, and facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. ...
Collagen VI-related dystrophy (collagen VI-RD) is a rare neuromuscular condition caused by mutations in the COL6A1, COL6A2 or COL6A3 genes. The phenotypic spectrum includes early-onset Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy, adult-onset Bethlem myopathy and an intermediate phenotype. The disorder is characterised by distal hyperlaxity and progressive muscle weakness, joint contractures and respi...
The limb girdle muscular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by proximal muscle weakness and disease onset ranging from infancy to adulthood. We report here eight patients from seven unrelated families affected by a novel and relatively mild form of autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD2) with onset in the first decade of life and characterized b...
Antisense therapy is an approach to fighting diseases using short DNA-like molecules called antisense oligonucleotides. Recently, antisense therapy has emerged as an exciting and promising strategy for the treatment of various neurodegenerative and neuromuscular disorders. Previous and ongoing pre-clinical and clinical trials have provided encouraging early results. Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA...
